Iphone 3G + MagicJack = Best thing since sliced bread!!

ok this is for people that have a Iphone 3G and a MagicJack USB device for unlimited calling in the USA.

Basically you get the info from your magicjack using your PC. Input the Magicjack info on your iphone 3G and now you have a cell phone that you can make unlimited long distance calls from your iphone in north america.

You would in turn need a data plan on your iphone otherwise you could only do it while in a wifi area.

I am a little confused. My Verizon phone was able to roam on GSM because they used TDMA. Tell it was shutdown. The phone recognizes it as Analog. If PCS has TDMA, It could be technically be used on GSM.

I cancelled my contract with AT&T and use Google Voice with Gizmo for free incoming and outgoing. I use Siphon and backgrounder as my softphone. Yes, it only works in wifi, but I live in nyc. Oh yeah, free sms too.

He's with a Canadian carrier, so maybe they offer free incoming plans.

You're right, that makes sense.

That's what I plan to do eventually, once GV gets out of beta (or I buy a GC/GV number via eBay).
